  • Just a correction, Hitler and Nazi party never used Swastika, the original name of the symbol was “Hakenkreuz” in German.

    There is no mention of the word “Swastika” in any of the writings and speeches of the Nazi party.

    Hakenkreuz was wrongly translated to Swastika when the translation was carried out in English from German.

    The correct translation of Hakenkreuz in English would be “Hooked Cross”.

    Swastika is a similar looking sacred Hindu and Buddhist symbol, maybe because of it’s similarity this error occurred and it went unchallenged in international forums as Hindus and Buddhists didn’t even know how their sacred symbol was misappropriated and misrepresented because of mistranslation.
